Coonstruction on our multi-use buildiing, funded my Measure T, reached a milestone -- at least a visual milestone -- by placing the first beam this week.  Many more beams will follow, but the first one is special.  The multi-use room will house a kitchen, cafeteria, and stage and flexible seating area for performances.  Ribbon cutting is scheduled for the beginning of next school year, 25-26.

Thanks for neighborhood volunteer Ms. Beena!  You usually see her on the drop-off loop in the mornings.  Today, she helped Principal Burbank put on traditional dress and taught her and the kinders two fun moves - Raas with sticks and Garba with claps and steps.

Forest Hill hosted our annual cow assembly by the Dairy Council. Over two assemblies, every student learned about milk and milk products from the cow to the cafeteria.  Every student learned that "mother mammals make milk" and to say "pasteurize" (hint, past your eyes!).  The name of the visiting cow is Buttermilk, and she's five years old.  Ask your student what they learned about Buttermilk today!

Our TK-3rd grade students visit Mrs. Cheng for an art lesson once a week.  Our 4th and 5th grade students visit Mrs. Cheng every other week. Thanks to Forest Hill PTA for their generous funding.  This art program is enrichment on top of the  district-provided A.I.M. lessons (Art, Innovation, and Music) classes.

We know that when learners know the WHY, in addition to the WHAT, they perform better.  This year, teachers are asking students what is important to them in their new classroom space.  How will they, as students, show up for each other?  Each classroom's mission statement will use grade appropriate language.  Each will be different because they are created by and committed to by the students in the room.  In this example, students are adding their handprint as their commitment.  A different classroom will be featured each week.
